Hibster. Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Boonie Oh look a winter project, buy an SIII and a new chassis (£1900 for a galvansied chassis, new springs and an overdrive unit) here and here come the temptation fairies they are called :- - Wouldn't be too hard, just a few rusty bolts - Bikesheders would come and help - You'd end up with a nice solid vehicle - It'd be ready before the really cold (in the garage) and nasty (out on the roads) weather sets in - You'd get to learn how the vehicle goes together (useful for the future) - The Boonie hound would go in the back - It'd be worth more than you paid for it Tempt tempt You know you want to Paul 😬 😬 Supercheese R250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boonie Hound Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 😬 Right that does it I'm coming over to your house, strapping you in a chair and making you watch that God-awfull 'Arramatic Spices' advert until your head explodes..... You are truly evil.....did you see the pic of the LWB SW going through the mud....NOoooooooooooooooo....I mustn't look............. Surely there is another 7 owner out there who can help meeeeee.....

ewenm Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Been thinking about setting up a "club" of a similar idea to Damon Hill's P1 club - but with cars I want to drive/own and lots cheaper. So it would have 7s, Landys, Lancia Delta HF, Audi quattro SWB. Hmmm, need a big garage. I'll help you Boonie... help you build a Landy that is... 😬 70443 miles and counting... but a broken wrist ❗ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Bill Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 was rather funny though, nice to see some being 'normal' for a change, rather than a snooty git 😳 😬 (tiff?) Does that remind you of the first drive in your seven BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giles Wardle Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 I have Landy Defender 90 County TD5 and a 7. Feeling oh so very smug and self-satisfied. Landy in for its first 12,000 mile service today. Have had Discos and Rangies in the past, but Defender is comfortably my fave. TD5 is a superb engine. I'm a wuss and have "County" pack with...electric windows AND central locking Cannot recommend them enough. BUY BUY BUY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owelly Posted October 23, 2003 Author Share Posted October 23, 2003 Or you could buy my Disco for less than it would cost to rebuild a S3 with a new chassis! Its warmer than a chicken shed landy, quieter, faster, etc,etc... savin up to be eccentric. but for now, i'll just be stupid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owelly Posted October 23, 2003 Author Share Posted October 23, 2003 And you could tow your new Audi 80 home with you!!! *thumbup* 😬 savin up to be eccentric. but for now, i'll just be stupid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
